What, am I to wake up suddenly and thenEnroll at the local college, earn me a degreeAnd I could work weekends?If I work real hardI could mow your backyard

I can go to Europe, travel with my friendsI can blow a thousand deutsche marksTo get drunk in a pub with some AustraliansBuy a giant backpackSew a flag on the back

[Chorus]I think never is enough (yeah, never is enough)I never want to do that stuffI think never is enough (yeah, never is enough)You never have to do that stuff

I never had to spend a summer planting treesI never made my way through a forestInch by inchDoubled over on my hands and kneesNever spent a single day in retailTelling people what they want to hearTelling people anything to make a saleEating in the food courtWith the old and the bored

[Chorus]

The world's your oyster shellSo what's that funny smell?You eat the bivalve anyway,You're sick with salmonellaYou get your Ph.DHow happy you will beWhen you get a job at Wendy'sAnd are honored with Employee of the Month
